Is it time for banking to move from KYC to KYB ?
source
The joke goes that to get money from a bank you have to prove that you do not need it and only then would the bank give you the money as loan.
Why use Joke & Bank in the same line ?
The way banks are treating people is becoming a joke. First you have to furnish an identity, give proof of residence and even show income documents to prove that you are worthy to hold a bank account.
It is not uncommon to be knowing a existing bank customer who would introduce you to the bank.
Then the bank lets you open an account. On top of that you have to maintain a minimum balance and if your balance goes below that then you lose money as the bank imposes a penalty.
After doing all this the bank has your money.
What does the bank do with your money ?
It lends it out its own discretion. Do you know to whom the bank has given your money? On a macro level you can read its financial report.
However a lot more happens in a banks operation that fails the due diligence. I am not saying that a bank does a fraud or is not careful with your money.
However there is a lot less transparency in the banks operations then should be.
You are liable to pay penalties if you do not pay the money back on time. Are banks not equally liable to maintain the same level of transparency.
Often the common man understand little in terms of what happens with the bank.
Or why the banks fail .
Yet there is little protection beyond a point. Somehow it is the retail guy who has to bear the brunt if a bank or banking system fails.
There is a lot more at stake then just your money
If there is a data breach or an exploit the retail customer suffers.
If the banks employee leaves and sells the client database to a third party it results in numerous calls to the end user trying to sell him all kinds of products from credit card, loans, mortgages and what not.
It is not the clients fault that someone at the bank sold the data and there is zero accountability of the bank.
The bank takes zero responsibility of the customers data and no one even talks of such things. No one bats an eyelid at the lack of answerability.
We the customers suffer as we lose our precious time and have to deal with all the pesky calls.
Yet it is the customer of the bank who gets a raw deal.
Is it time to question the way the bank works
To see that the banks work according to the central bank guidelines is important but how much of it is only on paper as what they do with the resources they hold is entirely upto the bank.
Also they need to be made accountable for any data breaches and bound legally to compensate if a data breach happens or a client data is shared without his consent.
Comparing Hive wallet to a bank ?
If you do that then would find holding your hbd in saving earns you a handsome 20% return annually and not to mention creating an account on Hive is free and the interest earing wallet comes no minimum balance requirements.
